Wallpaper - Going it Alone III

Our Going it Alone III wallpaper brings a wide desert mountain landscape into the home with a quiet, photographic stillness. Captured by Nathan Larson, the composition centres on a solitary, sun-weathered mountain rising gently above an expansive arid plain. What we particularly appreciate is the restrained, muted colour palette, where dusty mauves, warm earthy taupes, dry brush greens, and pale sky tones blend in soft gradation. Produced as made-to-measure mural wallpapers on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design offers an open horizon that adds depth without overwhelming a room.

In the room

We see this wall mural working especially well on a wide, uninterrupted wall where the full horizontal expanse of the plain and sky can breathe. In a living room behind a low sofa or across the main wall of a calm bedroom, the panoramic perspective draws the eye outward, creating a gentle sense of scale and openness. The subdued tones also make it a considered choice for a quiet home office or study, where a grounded, contemplative backdrop feels natural. In rooms with steady daylight, the subtle shifts between the dusty lilac shadows and sandy plains become particularly nuanced.

Styling it

Because the motif carries a strong horizon and an understated, weathered character, we would keep the surrounding furniture low and grounded. Clean-lined contemporary pieces or warm mid-century shapes work nicely without competing with the mountain silhouette. We suggest pairing this design with natural materials like matte finished oak or ash, alongside unbleached linen or textured wool in soft, neutral shades. Keeping accent pieces simple and visual clutter minimal lets the wide-open landscape set the visual pace for the entire space.

Colour combinations

The palette within the wallpaper centres on muted taupe, dusty mauve, dry brush greens, and pale, desaturated sky tones. Around it, we recommend drawing from these soft, warm undertones. Pale stone, chalky off-white, and warm greige work beautifully on adjacent walls and woodwork. If you want to introduce deeper contrasting accents through upholstery or cabinetry, consider muted olive, charcoal, or dark terracotta to mirror the desert terrain while maintaining a balanced, cohesive feel.
